In a large bowl, beat cream cheese on medium until smooth. Beat in sweetener until well combined.
Beat in eggs one at a time, scraping down sides of bowl and beaters as needed. Then beat in coconut milk, vanilla extract, and coconut extract until smooth.
Brush the sides of the springform pan with a little oil or melted butter and then pour the filling over the cooled crust.
Place springform pan on a cookie sheet and place on the center rack on the oven. On the rack below, place a large baking dish filled with water.
Bake 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes, or until edges are set and center just barely jiggles when shaken. Remove and let cool completely.
Run a sharp knife around the edges of the pan and remove sides. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 or 4 hours.
